Back to normal?

Back to Normal?

So, when Winterstorm Grayson came through, my school district closed for 5 days. At my house we received 12 inches of snow with drifts that were higher. 

 

Due to the days off from the snow, I had to go back through and redo my pacing for the rest of the semester to make sure the content is covered. I have to admit I expected to be out of school for three days but not for five. We returned to school on Thursday and now have a three day weekend in remembrance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Tomorrow we return to school and the weather is predicting another snowfall for Wednesday or Thursday with possible accumulation of three inches.

Is the schedule going back to normal? The teacher side of me hopes so because I want to get through the rest of the semester without rescheduling my lessons. The snow loving side of me is saying “let it snow.”

Teachers have to be flexible. Not only with their students and those that work with, but also with circumstances which changes the teaching schedule.

By the way, this morning at 5am I received the call for no school. So far this month the attendance has been 5 days present, 1 holiday, and 6 snow days.
